This isn't much of a hoop, you install wine and run the installer with it, furthermore, I'd rather deal with the kind of hoop that isn't actively harming you intentionally any day.
It was not easy. Other guides didn't work, I had to find it, and also do or, so it took like 1 and a half hour.
My advice is honestly, just use steam, it's largely a better experience anyway. I don't think fall guys is exactly necessary. That's a very self-imposed hoop, i'd get it if it was critical work, or if there were no alternatives, but, steam is a perfect experience.
It's epics job to support linux, not linux's job to support epic.
You do realize how much money Microsoft spends to make games work well on Windows, right? It is absolutely the responsibility of the OS to ensure smooth experience across many apps and services. This attitude right here is why Linux plays second fiddle to Windows still.
and yet nearly everything on steam works flawlessly.
It is absolutely the job of app devs to support the platform, I have no idea why you would believe otherwise, and as far as gaming is concerned I genuinely believe the only place linux loses on steam is anticheat, which isn't a matter of linux side support. Do you have an example?
